About

Currently working as Head of Power BI Centre of Excellence for Unilever, with a career in “Data Solutions” of 16+ years (more an adventure than a career!). Nowadays my role covers the management of one of the largest implementations of Power BI in the world. My Data Adventure started 16 years ago as software developer for EPR solutions (both back and front end, and both client and server side), progressed in parallel as software engineer and business intelligence developer to end un in the last few years managing software development, moving to a different country and joining an extremely interesting company as Unilever as Lead Manager, which constantly gives me the opportunity to learn and grow as a professional in a fast pace environment. Working for Unilever is an outstanding opportunity to keep learning by being constantly challenged and supported at the same time by a myriad of different professionals (internal and 3rd parties), but also working in an environment with a really strong and fair work and business ethic.
